has anybody installed one of these short throw shifters? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SHORT...spagenameZWDVW

if so, do you have any pics of it installed, and also how well does it work, is it shorter and how was the install.. just a few questions.. i have my mind set on the twm but if this works just as good i might buy one

edit: is it shorter in height and is the shift throw shorter

 

Oh my god DO NOT buy that piece of crap. Spend the extra $100 and get a TWM with a nice looking knob. Screw eBay. Besides the twm comes with aluminum bushings and all that. Who knows what comes with that "kit".

The height is adjustable on the TWM and the throw is most definitley shorter.
I can describe it best as 1st to 2nd with the shifter installed is like 1st to neutral when stock.

 

HURST short throw is the only to go Looks great reduces throw by like 20% I Love mine.

 

hurst is for the 2.0

 

Sorry for the thread hijack...but will changing the stock bushings with aluminum ones make the stock shifter little firmer? Also is the ball joint on the stock shifter plastic or metal? The TWM looks metal...but I wasn't sure on the stock one.

 

Not sure on the bushings, I would assume so though.

The stock pivot ball is plastic as well.

 

Yeah that's what I ment, the pivot ball...I've noticed that the LS stock shifter is pretty stiff or harder to move then the SS S/C one. But I guess I'll just get me a TWM shorty.

 

Yeah the aluminum bushings do make it a little more firm feeling. I know the stock shifter is plastic. I could have sworn the ball was made of metal on the TWM. It doesnt really matter either way.

 

You can use the stock shift knob with a B&M right? I want to keep the stock look...
